| Text: | Guide me, O Thou great Jehovah |
| Author and Translator (vs. 2, 3): | Rev. William Williams |
| Translator (v. 1): | Rev. Peter Williams |
1 Guide me, O Thou great Jehovah,
Pilgrim through this barren land;
I am weak, but Thou art mighty;
Hold me with Thy powerful hand.:
Bread of heaven, Bread of heaven,
Feed me till I want no more.
2 Open now the crystal fountain,
Whence the healing stream doth flow;
Let the fire and cloudy pillar
Lead me all my journey through:
Strong Deliverer, Strong Deliverer,
Be Thou still my Strength and Shield.
3 When I tread the verge of Jordan,
Bid my anxious fears subside;
Death of deaths and hell's Destruction,
Land me safe on Canaan's side:
Songs of praises, songs of praises
I will ever give to Thee.
Amen.
